Listen Later

When children begin to realize that something about a parent’s behavior doesn’t feel right, it can be confusing, frightening, and isolating — especially if they don’t know how to talk about it safely.In this video, we talk about how to support kids when they start noticing unhealthy or unpredictable behavior from a parent, without attacking, diagnosing, or putting them in the middle.This video covers: • How to respond when a child says “something feels off” • Why believing your child matters more than explaining things away • How to help kids understand it’s not their fault • Teaching emotional boundaries in age-appropriate ways • Allowing kids to hold mixed emotions without guilt • How consistency and calm create safety during confusionThis isn’t about labeling or blaming a parent.It’s about helping children trust their reality, feel emotionally safe, and grow with resilience.If you’re a parent navigating high-conflict dynamics, this video will give you language and guidance to show up as the stable, grounded presence your child needs.☎ For one on one coaching - https://www.dadsurvivingdivorce.com/coaching/❋ Become a channel member! - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUXEHz3OECVwLz1X-SNM4lw/join📱Text "DSDLIVE" to 1-844-598-0012 for text notifications🏕Camping Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTJroZvhxsDDjLi_kf9gd6A⚠️DISCLAIMER - Links used in this description are affiliate links and if used a small commission will help support this channel.
